Study Guide for the DVD Niigaanibatowaad: FrontRunners. This Study Guide is to raise awareness within the Anglican, Presbyterian, and United Churches so no church member can ever say "I never knew" and so all residential school survivors can tell their stories.

"FrontRunners tells the story of 10 young Aboriginal men chosen to carry the Pan American Games torch from St. Paul, Minn. to Winnipeg, Man. in 1967. When they arrived at the stadium, however, a non-Aboriginal runner was given the honour of carrying the torch inside. Nine of the Aboriginal men were residential school students, and the film traces their journey of suffering and reflection."
